NEEDED: Dedicated Server, FULLY MANAGED

[incka]

Hello.

I need a dedicated server which is FULLY MANAGED meaning that you will set up EVERYTHING including MYSQL AND EMAIL for me. I will pay well.

I also need CPANEL. I don't care about OS. I need my server online 100%. I will not accept bad support like I got at hostony.

I need this ASAP. My sites are going offline VERY soon, I need a server quickly.

You could get an unmanaged server, like at rackshack, and pay someone to manage it for you ($30 an hour or whatever). It might cost a little when you first purchase it then you could probably work on a regularly monthly fee for managing updates. There are quite a few companies that already do this specifically for rackshack customers.

Um, I can recieve mail now... Strange...

Have you looked at Interland's managed servers? They're damn fast! Not sure what the support's like though.

I still can't send email... This is annoying...

It's not recieving email now..

Goodness incka you've had some issues with your web hosting...

[incka]

Yeah... I wonder if I should have picked a different OS...

Edit: Sorry, I didn't realize, Rackspace does not offer cPanel.

I don't think its the OS problem ( Linux(s) are quite stable ), maybe its your web host.
Some reasons maybe because they have a small PIPE ( Band Throttle ), Traffic Overload or maybe even some hardware problems at their side....

But seriously where are you going to find 100% uptime? 99% maybe but 100% is really difficult to provide.
I personally manage the NetWork on GalacNet and trust me 100% is not really possible. ( Maintanence downtime, sudden extended Power Failures, too much traffic overloading the server and that sort of thing :P )

I get 100% on Rackshack 50 weeks of the year.

[incka]

You got 100% every day on the year on Dan O'Brian's Viagra Hosting :D

AngelNetworkz.net, despite their lacking site, has a great reputation as a managed server provider. The Dallas servers are ThePlanet/ServerMatrix servers, and the CA servers are Managed.com servers. For just $10 or $20 more than the server would cost unmanaged per month, you get full (and supposedly proactive) management.
